Chapter 251

When Kieran came out of the bathroom, it had been half an hour. He was wearing nothing but a bath towel, a white towel hanging around his neck. Julie couldn’t help but glance curiously at the bathroom, “What were you doing in there?”

“Taking a shower,” Kieran replied, then noticed the camera in Julie’s arms and asked in surprise. “Why are you holding a camera?”

“Daphne said the next issue of the magazine needs captivating content, preferably a cover shot of the famous Mr. Hernandez fresh out of the shower. So, to meet Daphne’s demands and be a good friend, I thought of putting you on the cover. Aren’t selfless?” Julie explained with a mischievous smile.

Kieran immediately covered his chest with the towel, looking at Julie warily, “Is this your idea of a surprise?”

Julie couldn’t help but laugh, “Mr. Hernandez, do you actually believe this kind of thing?”

Seeing Julie’s triumphant expression, Kieran realized how foolish his earlier actions had been. He coughed awkwardly and removed the towel to continue drying his hair.

Perhaps bored waiting outside, Julie had already put on a black shirt, his shirt.

She came down from the bed with the camera in her arms, revealing her beautiful long legs, and handed him the camera and said, “I found something very interesting here. Take your time to have a look.”

With that, she dashed into the bathroom like she was running away.

Kieran was left standing outside with camera in hand. “Mysterious and intriguing, huh?” He called towards the bathroom.

Julie’s muffled voice came from inside, “You’ll find out when you watch it. Make sure to fast forward.”

“Do I snore when I sleep?” he wondered about what might appear on the camera.

Julie found his speculation both amusing and exasperating, “It’s worse than snoring.

Then, Julie in the bathroom went silent. Kieran draped the towel he’d used to dry his hair over his shoulders and turned on the camera.

Julie, anxiously waiting in the bathroom, felt like Kieran was opening Pandora’s box outside. The bathtub held the water he’d drawn for her earlier, and now she was

fully immersed in it, fingers tightly gripping the edge of the tub as she imagined Kieran’s reaction when he found out what had happened that night.

Outside, Mr. Hernandez’s face grew increasingly serious, eventually sporting a hint of perplexed embarrassment.

After nearly half an hour of fidgeting, Kieran’s voice came from outside, “Do you plan on spending the night in the bathroom?”

“Is that okay?” Julie’s voice came from the bathroom.

“What do you think?” His voice came from the bathroom door Watching Kieran’s silhouette at the bathroom door, Julie took a deep breath, stood up in the bathtub, and casually wrapped herself in a bathrobe.

Making sure she was decent, she loudly replied to Kieran, “I’m ready…”

She checked herself in the mirror, ensuring her complexion looked normal, then turned to open the door. However, just as she turned, she noticed a mobile phone wrapped in the towel. It was Kieran’s spare phone. How had it been left in the bathroom?

Julie picked up the phone and accidentally pressed a button, revealing a WhatsApp message on the lock screen. A contact named “Psychologist Taylor” had sent a message that read, “This situation is a bit complicated. If you can’t act just because you’ve seen the lady’s lingerie, you can try…”

Julie couldn’t read the rest, but the message was definitely strange.

Frowning, Julie contemplated the meaning of the message when the bathroom door suddenly swung open, pushed by Kieran from the outside.

Startled, Julie instinctively hid the phone behind her back.

It was a rather conspicuous attempt to conceal something.

Kieran raised an eyebrow, looking at Julie. “What are you hiding?”

Knowing she couldn’t hide it, she simply brought the phone back out and handed it to him, asking, “Psychologist Taylor?”

Kieran glanced at Julie, reminding her, “You just dropped the phone in the toilet.”

“I didn’t ask about the phone; I asked about this psychologist…” Julie suddenly realized and placed the phone back on the towel. She asked, “What’s wrong with this. phone?”

“When you called my name earlier, you startled me, so the phone accidentally fell into the toilet, Kieran explained.

Julie turned to squeeze some hand soap, washing her hands carefully.

Kieran walked up behind Julie and said, “Did you know about that camera the next morning?”

Julie went silent.

“Knowing and deliberately not telling me?” Kieran’s hands were already on the sink at her waist.

Julie looked up and saw Kieran in the mirror. The bathroom was silent except for the sound of water, and Kieran could not move as her strong arms fastened her to the sink.

She didn’t speak because she didn’t know what to say.

Who would have thought it would be so awkward for them to get in touch again after so many years of reunion?

In fact, she did not dare to show the video to Kieran. The reason was not Kieran’s ridiculous behavior in the first half when the two were drunk. It’s the intimacy of the latter half.

“Say something?” Kieran’s voice was in her ear.

Julie’s body shook slightly, a little guilty and said, “We were not drunk at that time, I was afraid you wake up to see your own behavior, will be embarrassed, I did this for your own good…”

“When I set up the crime scene this morning, did you put your hands on my brother? Was it for me? Kieran’s tone was both gentle and questioning, and sounded

dangerous, with the possibility of punishment if she answered to displease him.

It took Julie a while to think about her answer, but she finally decided… It’s best to keep quiet.

“Am I dumb?” he asked, his lips brushing against her smooth earlobe as he whispered softly.

He was refer

to the fact that he could remove lingerie but didn’t know how to put it on.

“Though you might not be the sharpest tool in the shed, your learning curve is impressive…” Julie replied, gazing at herself in the mirror and couldn’t help but laugh.

Kieran pointed to the phone on the towel, saying, “Do you know who this Taylor person is?”

“Is Taylor a man or a woman?” she asked, turning her head.

He leaned in, his lips meeting hers gently, “Is that really what you’re focused on? Taylor is the most reliable psychologist I could find. Do you know why I needed a psychologist?”

Nervously, Julie turned to look at Kieran, locking eyes with his reflection in the mirror.

However, he turned her face toward him, forcing her to meet his gaze directly.

He said, “I thought it was just a dream, a dream where I was entwined with you in bed, but it turned out I was comforting myself at night. I thought it was just a dream where I was madly dancing the tango in your lingerie, so every time I see you… I can’t control myself, Julie!”

With that, Kieran suddenly let her go, turning away in anger.

Guilty Julie followed up, “Actually…”

Just two steps, Kieran in front of her suddenly stopped, and Julie, who had not had time to stop, suddenly bumped into his back.

Kieran turned to pick her up, took two steps back, and put her on the sink. In her bathrobe, Julie didn’t feel cold on the marble counter. She was afraid of falling, so she grabbed Kieran’s shoulder. Sitting on the sink, she gazed up at him with innocent eyes.

Kieran placed his hands on the sink on either side of her and leaned in slightly, finally meeting her gaze eye to eye.

“Actually what?” he asked.

Under Kieran’s intense, seductive gaze, Julie forgot what she had wanted to say originally. She lifted her head and looked at Kieran, saying confidently, “I forgot what I was going to say…”

“And do you remember what you said that night when you begged for mercy?” Kieran’s eyes were ambiguous for an instant.

Julie reflexively shook her head and said, “I forgot what I said that night, I don’t remember it. I didn’t say anything! Did I beg for mercy? No!”

“Oh, you did. Forgot? Good thing I have the video. “He reached out his hand and rubbed her head, kissed her reddish cheek, and said, “Sit here and wait for me, I’ll get the camera, we’ll go over it together, and you’ll remember.”

Seeing that Kieran was about to turn around, Julie grabbed Kieran and held his arm tightly. She looked at him with her big eyes and said, “Honey, I was wrong!”

“Where did you go wrong?”

Julie thought for a moment. “What do you think?”

“Shouldn’t you be rearranging a crime scene in the morning?”

“I shouldn’t.”

“Should you have told me you were recording?”

“I should have,” she admitted.

“Do you remember how you begged me to stop at the end?” ”

I remember… No, I don’t!” Julie once again successfully evaded the truth.

However, this succeeded in pleasing Kieran, who smiled, gently reached out and touched the bridge of Julie’s nose, and said, “If you tell me again what you said the other night, I’ll show mercy.”

Julie shook her head.

Kieran nodded, turned and said, “Then I’ll get the camera, and we can review the night together.”

She reached out and grabbed Kieran by the neck. “I give up, I’ll tell you everything, okay?”

Julie’s face turned even redder when she was bashful, and she looked cute with her fair complexion.

Kieran raised an eyebrow, “Well, I’m all ears!”
